Mashakosha The Blast Processors have some growing to do in my opinion, but their first full album, Genesis, is a great starting point. Taking some cues from the likes of The Megas and The Protomen, they have some great tunes. Favorite track: We Ride.

Mimeslayer An album that does nothing but show potential, but still has a solid base. Tighten the vocals and get slightly cooler shades, and Blast Processors will be a band I can brag about knowing first. Favorite track: Casualties of War.

Genesis Does 02:24
(Spoken) What does Blast Processing do exactly? Well! Blast Processing is more than an idea, it's more than what's inside, it's thinking! Blast Processing is taking a cartridge, slammin' it into another one to create an even better cartridge! And Blast Processing is more than a symbol, it is the fate of all mankind. Blast Processing is your hope! (Sung) Genesis does Genesis does what Nintendon't Genesis does Genesis does what Nintendon't You can't do this on Nintendo (no you) Can't do this on Nintendo (no you) Can't do this on Nintendo (no you) Can't do this on Nintendo (yeah) Genesis does (16-bit arcade graphics) Genesis does what Nintendon't Genesis does (Joe Montana football) Genesis does what Nintendon't Genesis (DOES) Genesis (DOES) Genesis (DOES) Genesis Genesis (DOES) Genesis (DOES) Genesis (DOES) Genesis does!

We Ride 04:09
Hit the road on our own Endless war is our home With hope soon a new day will dawn So hold me tight we'll ride into the night All you have to do is hang on (hang on!) Chorus: This is our final chance for victory Back to the past to change our destiny Warriors fighting for humanity How can we end this dark insanity One after one our comrades fade away Fighting the fight until we're in our graves Nomads in time we make our last escape Tyranny ends with us in time We know not what we'll face Crossing both time and space We fight for the dreams cast aside So don't look back it's our final attack With passion and fury we ride (we ride) (Chorus) (Solo) (Chorus Reprise) Refrain: You can run. We will find you. To the ends of time: you will never be safe Destiny can't be changed Your mission is a waste of time You'll be made to pay Once you're in our grasp Blast Processors!

(Intro) Mmmmmm yeahhh (Verse) Stand tough, hold your guard now Don't let them ever keep you down Don't stop, keep on going Let loose the fire that you hide (inside) (Chorus) Oh when you're all alone And you are so far from your home It feels like ohhhhhhhhhh But baby don't be scared Just close your eyes and I'll be there To keep you strong (Verse) Fight back! Hack the system Don't let them get inside your head It's time cue the curtain Get set! They've rung the final bell

(Master System) More power than before, sound the drums of war I fight for what is mine, I'm taking what is yours So give in to the night, you'll tremble at my might I will have my way let's end this game we play! (Saturn) We've battled many times before What's one more You won't win my heart is strong (Master System) Every battle we've fought, all the chaos I've wrought It's that hedgehog's fault he's stopped every plot With me out of the way you'll surely be his prey So join forces with me and we'll make him pay (Mega Drive) Fields are burning in my home How can I stop this chaos I've got to fight this on my own He thinks he is fast but I am faster (keep on going) Controlling chaos? Hah! I am its master (it's not over) I face alone my sacred calling Fight to the end to keep from falling Whoa-oh until I die I'll keep us in the sky Keeping watch over the precious Master Emerald (Saturn) Knuckles please listen to my cry I am not the one who needs to die! (Mega Drive) What dark secrets could Eggman be holding (could he be right) Is that doctor a wolf in sheep's clothing (he's a liar) Has it been a ruse from the beginning? Or is it just a tail that he's been spinning (Saturn) No need to stand alone you aren't on your own I will never let him have the Master Emerald (Mega Drive) Robotnik you've uttered your last lie Now I'm sure it's you who needs to die! (Master System) Saw through my deception no matter the reception His emerald collection will be in my possession They call it a crime but it's the end of the line In just a matter of time you'll see that Mobius will be mine! (MS&MD) Fields were burning in our homes But now we can stop this chaos Not going to fight this on our own Fields were burning in our homes But now we can stop this chaos Not going to fight this on our own

Your worthless little rodent brain Can't comprehend This is. the. end (Verse) Through Emerald Hills and Lava Reefs My plans have ended in defeat You've stopped me for the last time Soon my great plan will be set in motion So marvel at my great machine The last sight you'll have ever seen And when I'm done I'll mount your head Outside the gates of Robotropolis (Chorus) So here's the point you must have missed: It always had to come to this The time is nigh for you to bow down to your lord Ivo robotnik Save the planet from my reign? Your worthless little rodent brain Can't comprehend This is. the. end

(spoken) Have you heard of this new place? It's called The Cool Spot (spoken) And as you dance you feel the pure, raw energy of the club The lights, the bodies, the sounds It's as if you were always meant to be here You notice a figure standing across the room Something about them just compels you You lock eyes and that's when you realize that nothing Will ever be the same again
